Note: I have an old Bio on Olive here but since I redesigned him I felt I should reintroduce him.

Bio: Olive is a unique case. He was conceived long ago, just when Sombra cursed the Empire to disappear. His mother and Sombra were close as foals so when he took over, she tried to reform him by loving him. This didn’t work and the Empire fell. A thousand years later, the crystal ponies awoke, defeated Sombra and joined the modern age. Surprisingly, Amber found herself pregnant and it didn’t take a genius to know who the father was. Since many knew her relationship with Sombra, Amber had a hard pregnancy. The only reason she got through it was from the kindness of Empress Cadence.This act of kindness eventually lead to Amber marrying a guard and Olive being fairly close to Flurry, often foalsitting when asked.
Facts:
- Olive has never met his father though he knows he exists in Equestria. Fear of what would happen upon discovering him makes Olive avoid trying. Despite this, Sombra has visited Olive, whom remains unaware.
- He doesn’t know he has half siblings.
- The dark magic within allows him to see the darkness in some ponies heart, which helps him in his job by suggesting the perfect bouquet for a customer.
- Princess Skyla hates him for telling her she needs to move on with her life rather than dwell in the past.
